Scaling on-chip photonic neural processors using arbitrarily programmable wave propagation

1 code implementation27 Feb 2024 Tatsuhiro Onodera, Martin M. Stein, Benjamin A. Ash, Mandar M. Sohoni, Melissa Bosch, Ryotatsu Yanagimoto, Marc Jankowski, Timothy P. McKenna, Tianyu Wang, Gennady Shvets, Maxim R. Shcherbakov, Logan G. Wright, Peter L. McMahon

On-chip photonic processors for neural networks have potential benefits in both speed and energy efficiency but have not yet reached the scale at which they can outperform electronic processors.

Human brains and bodies are not hardware running software: the hardware is the software.

Quantum-noise-limited optical neural networks operating at a few quanta per activation

no code implementations28 Jul 2023 Shi-Yuan Ma, Tianyu Wang, Jérémie Laydevant, Logan G. Wright, Peter L. McMahon

We experimentally demonstrated MNIST classification with a test accuracy of 98% using an optical neural network with a hidden layer operating in the single-photon regime; the optical energy used to perform the classification corresponds to 0. 008 photons per multiply-accumulate (MAC) operation, which is equivalent to 0. 003 attojoules of optical energy per MAC.

We conclude that with well-engineered, large-scale optical hardware, it may be possible to achieve a $100 \times$ energy-efficiency advantage for running some of the largest current Transformer models, and that if both the models and the optical hardware are scaled to the quadrillion-parameter regime, optical computers could have a $>8, 000\times$ energy-efficiency advantage over state-of-the-art digital-electronic processors that achieve 300 fJ/MAC.

Image sensing with multilayer, nonlinear optical neural networks

1 code implementation27 Jul 2022 Tianyu Wang, Mandar M. Sohoni, Logan G. Wright, Martin M. Stein, Shi-Yuan Ma, Tatsuhiro Onodera, Maxwell G. Anderson, Peter L. McMahon

In image sensing, a measurement, such as of an object's position, is performed by computational analysis of a digitized image.

An optical neural network using less than 1 photon per multiplication

2 code implementations27 Apr 2021 Tianyu Wang, Shi-Yuan Ma, Logan G. Wright, Tatsuhiro Onodera, Brian Richard, Peter L. McMahon

Here, we experimentally demonstrate an optical neural network achieving 99% accuracy on handwritten-digit classification using ~3. 2 detected photons per weight multiplication and ~90% accuracy using ~0. 64 photons (~$2. 4 \times 10^{-19}$ J of optical energy) per weight multiplication.

Efficient simulation of ultrafast quantum nonlinear optics with matrix product states

no code implementations11 Feb 2021 Ryotatsu Yanagimoto, Edwin Ng, Logan G. Wright, Tatsuhiro Onodera, Hideo Mabuchi

Ultra-short pulses propagating in nonlinear nanophotonic waveguides can simultaneously leverage both temporal and spatial field confinement, promising a route towards single-photon nonlinearities in an all-photonic platform.
